🌏 Welcome back to The Lorekeepers Library!
In this episode, Kriss journeys across the vast steppes of Mongolia to explore the ancient and enduring legend of the Four Directions — a sacred cosmology that shaped Mongolian ritual life, architecture, shamanic practices, and everyday movement.
Discover how the Mongols didn’t just see North, South, East, and West as points on a map — they were living forces, each bound to spirits, ancestors, and the turning of the world.
We’ll delve into how shamans call the directions into ceremonies, why the great city of Karakorum was built with sacred geomancy in mind, and how echoes of these beliefs are still alive in modern Mongolia today.
And if that wasn’t enough, we’ll broaden our view—tracing how cultures across the globe, from Native American medicine wheels to Norse cosmology, have woven the Four Directions into the very fabric of myth, memory, and meaning.
Whether you’re a lover of folklore, history, spirituality, or simply a curious soul wandering through the world's stories—you’re in the right place.
